Genesis I love Eunwoo and Andre (The Wonder Fools)

📰 Media outlets that used the term ‘Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law’ receive caution sanctions… “This is not just Cha’s issue” After a bill was proposed to prevent those punished for tax crimes from operating popular culture and arts planning businesses, several media outlets referred to it as the “#ChaEunwoo Prevention Law”… Press Ethics Commission: “High risk of infringing on human rights” Amid ongoing tax disputes involving celebrities establishing one-person agencies, media outlets that described a proposed bill aimed at preventing tax evasion in entertainment agency operations as the “Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law” have received “caution” sanctions. Last month, the Korea Press Ethics Commission held its 1007th meeting and announced that it had issued “caution” measures against 16 media companies, including News1, Cookie News, and Chosun.com, for using the phrase “Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law” in their headlines. Rep. Jeong Yeon-wook of the National Assembly’s Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee proposed the bill in March as its representative sponsor. The bill is a partial amendment to the Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act intended to close regulatory loopholes involving entertainment agencies and strengthen tax fairness. Current law already prohibits sex offenders and child abusers from operating popular culture and arts planning businesses. However, there are no restrictions for individuals punished for tax evasion. The amendment would add violations of the Tax Offender Punishment Act as grounds for disqualification from operating such businesses. When the amendment was proposed, many media outlets reported on it using the term “Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law.” ▲ Outlets used the headline “Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law” after the bill — which would prohibit individuals who violated the Tax Offender Punishment Act from operating popular culture and arts planning businesses — was proposed. The Press Ethics Commission determined that the 16 outlets violated Article 1, Paragraph 3 (“Social Responsibility”) of the Press Ethics Code under the section on “Freedom, Responsibility, and Independence of the Press.” This provision states that the press must do its best to protect individual rights and actively report on public issues in society in order to foster diverse public opinion and improve public welfare. The outlets were also found to have violated Article 11 (“Respect for Honor and Credibility”), which states: “The press shall not publish reports or commentaries that damage the honor or credibility of individuals or organizations.” The Commission explained: “In a situation where disputes over tax avoidance and evasion continue, and where similar cases are numerous, labeling the amendment to the Popular Culture and Arts Industry Development Act as the ‘Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law’ carries a high risk of infringing upon the individual’s honor and human rights. It may also unnecessarily damage the person’s reputation, which is unrelated to the intent of the bill.” The Commission noted that tax disputes involving one-person agencies are not limited to Cha alone. Last year, actors such as Yoo Yeonseok, Jo Jinwoong, and Lee Joongi faced similar disputes, and this year actor Kim Seonho was also involved in the same issue. The Commission emphasized: “Categorically referring to the amendment — which adds individuals who received fines or heavier penalties under the Tax Offender Punishment Act to the list of disqualifications for entertainment agency operators — as the ‘Cha Eunwoo Prevention Law’ is not a responsible attitude for the press, which must not damage the honor or credibility of individuals or organizations.” #차은우 #チャウヌ #车银优 #ชาอึนอู #車銀優
